1. while your first point(tax collection)has some merit , that is a technicality rather than the cause...money is actually debt in a fiat system...if the dollar is a IOU that people give value to, they have to have faith that the debtor(US govt) will pay it back one day, hence the masses dont...

Economically I dont even think it will be as bad the 2008-2009...what I mean by our way of life as we know it changing is about how we think about the fragility of our supply chains, epidemiology and out breaks, the precariousness of our financial institutions...those kind of things....the only...

I do think it is reasonably safe hence I am still using my bank and keeping money in Fidelity and Etrade but do I know this with 100% certainty ..no...but this isn't the type of situation that will create a run on the banks like 2008. I see this as a significant contraction of the economy for...

I truly feel that society as we know it will change from here....sounds alarmist and extreme, but dont mean it that way...the way we think about epidemiology, social justice, pensions, leverage, supply chains. 1. 2 months ago when I first started hearing about Wuhan, it got my attention. Being...

Ok we are still on track now....we got the reversal I was looking for with a big hammer candle...a big hammer candle is absolutely needed for a true reversal...intraday low was approx 7200 on Naz rather than 7300 I was expecting but that's ok as its hard to catch the exact bottom when mkt's...

the down forces are very strong...even stronger than I thought...we are at a super critical time right now...we dont have much time to correct this thing imho...we will gap down tomorrow at the open but intraday if we dont get a big reversal and SPX closes below 2420-2430-ish level tomorrow...

breach is ok...we need to hold roughly that level for the week.

7300 is the int term floor....we breach it and were headed for long term bear level, which will be very ugly. Tried to tell you guys at 7300 we will bounce!...sometimes I do feel like I am talking to myself lol. Now lets see if 7300 holds..it needs to., otherwise TSLA will breach 500 level and...

Been pounding the table on Naz hitting 7300 for a week now...you guys notice the intraday low on Naz while down over 600 points...7295!!!...;)...now we gotta hold today and tomorrow....want to see a huge intraday hammer candle today.

7300 Naz target hit as predicted and yes we also hot the circuit breaker like I thought we would...3-4 days ago when I said Naz 7300 would be hit not many believed me, they didnt want to believe me...we absolutely must hold this level today and rest of week or this is gonna get real ugly like...

yes Corona got things going, then inevitable recession took it down another big notch...charts were broken over a week ago...we were testing the intermediate term levels today and as expected, we sliced through that too with Who pandemic news....we may test the circuit breaker once again tonight...

Just undercut yesterdays low...IT bear confirmed now...we will see 7400 on the Naz soon...if this level doesn't hold, it won't be pretty...I favor it will hold and hope it holds...otherwise SPX 1300-1900 on the table.

The true bottom will be a hammer shaped candle...big gap down at open followed by more selling, then a huge intraday swing and rally....:)

lol...buy the open big then,...you will be down big by wed afternoon ...;) think you missed my point if you think I am saying to panic and sell...times to sell was 2 weeks ago...too late to sell!...I am saying we are close to a bottom(but not quite yet) so preparing to buy lol.

and btw, this is nothing like 2008 when the entire banking and financial system was close to blowing up...if the fed's didn't step in our lives would have changed forever...there were trillions of CDS's at stake and without the Fed bailout of AIG and GS(Buffet) and etc, society as we knew it was...

My crystal ball says the line in the sand is 7300-7500 Nasdaq...the selling won't end until we touch that...corona was just the straw that broke camels back but not true cause...we have had a decade long bull breaking longevity records...Fed's used pretty much of of their ammo to pump liquidity...

expecting us to base around 650 and 700....will unload protective puts today and add long term calls...then slower grind up this time.

My top call was off by 80.00 yesterday but in a volatile and fast moving stock like this one, I'll take it....nailed the temporary top at 500.00 few weeks ago also. But don't worry, this pullback is normal and needed really...stocks can't go straight up forever...but the important part of my...

I do not see any signs of a top yet...matter of fact, I see(from charts...yeah yeah guessing game right?) a intermediate term blow off rally/top right around 1050.00...that will be a obvious short capitulation day(short term)....at that point I will unload 1/3rd of my long shares and my Jan 2022...

I am starting to wonder of there is something wrong with my car...I drove normally for 1/2 mile on normal streets and 3 miles came off the range and it was reading between 1200-1300 wHr/mi

its unreal to me you guys are getting 300-350 kWh/mi(have AWD LR)...I am getting 400-500 now...I drive aggressive but not crazy...this has gone up a decent amount after getting 20 inch wheels...and getting acceleration boost....havent seen 350 since I got acceleration boost.

We should see volatility pick up over the next few weeks...with TSLA earnings on 1/29 things will get tricky...the VIX should see sharp spike soon...should be just a temporary set back, but I see the markets and TSLA selling off before earnings(try to remember the big picture when this...

Nah not me...I live across the river from Portland OR

I have 65% of my shares back bought over previous few trading days...if I buy now the rest of 35% it will be close to a wash for me(maybe sightly down)...not too worried about since I bought all my shares around 200 level....ironic thing is this, I actually was number 1200 on original model s...

TSLA sold off right on cue today...this was a chip shot really...ended up unloading half early yesterday and the rest near the close yesterday...the euphoria of the TSLA bulls and extremely bullish sentiment and the charts say there needs to be a modest selloff and let the stock consolidate and...

just unloaded half my shares...will keep core shares for long term...will buy back in bit...:)...also bought some Feb puts to cover the shares I have left...if my theory is correct, we should see selloff by tomorrow or next day...:)...under no circumstance should people think Im a short and a...

Just watch the 485ish level ok...lol...:)...we will sell off based on no news(iran may be an excuse but not the actual cause)...I appreciate the rah rah guys as much as the next guy hehe...to think we are neighbors jesus...:). I could be dead wrong, but I doubt it....we shall see. You are dead...

Trust me nothing would make me happier than for TSLKA to go straight to 1000.00 but Ive seen euphoria MB's before....and if you don't see the resistance coming at 480-500(may last a few days or few months ya never know), that just means you dont understand how to read charts and that's ok...

I have been through many cycles before...the euphoria that Ive seen on this MB Ive seen many times...yes we are all making money and having fun but this kind if euphoria puts me on full alert...I called 480 as a temporary top earlier today and hedged with bitcoin and glad I did...Iran type of...

we should see a sharp pull back between 480-500(that's what the 10 yr charts say)...but its only temporary...need to digest these recent gains...for average investor staying long and not worrying about it is prob the best approach. For active traders, a small/modest pull back should be coming...

as we we await for these numbers, funny how we TSLA holders think alike...when cybertruck was unveiled i looked at my kid and said, "that just cost me a Rolex"...sure enough that's exactly what I lost the next morning...but then got it back and then some...:)...but Ive played stocks way more...

so I tried it out for first time last night...I used velcro and placed in right in front of screen....battery was at 67% and wasn't warmed up really......45 degrees outside....first run was 4.13 sec....I have the boost upgrade on AWD model. Sound about right???...with full battery and warmer...

also, lets not derail this thread by talking constantly about insurance rates...there is a different thread for that elsewhere...lets stay on subject...and thats how the upgrade will tear you face off when you punch it...:)....no regrets spending the 2K...TSLA and Elon's great execution paying...

i just installed mine...yeah its a given that its quite abit faster but the thing that I noticed is when driving normal from 20-50 mph the car just feels like its 300 lbs lighter...like its effortless to cruise at 40 mph now.

Yes this was a spendy upgrade, but for all of us believers who own tsla, it was a free upgrade...tsla has been on a tear since the earnings surprise....I figured I owed Elon....:)

Ok so I caved and ordered the boost upgrade...so how long before it’s ready for download. ??....like 5 min later?....next day???...will it show up on your phone Tesla app???

GTMG, are our wheels twins?...:)

yup...this swap isn't super simple or cheap...for me, it was better to stick with OEM performance calipers/rotors and pads with rear jumper harness...no regrets here at all...look good and stop well...but do squeak bit when cold early in am.

where is the guy with the pie chart?...we need an update!

is that RR, Lambo, Bugatti legit or a joke???

there is a 20 page thread already asking same question. What Kind of Car Did The Model 3 Replace?

how the heck are you guys running so efficiently??...I have LR dual motor and I am at 325 wh/mi at 8K miles...I am running 20 inch wheels though...I dont drive super fast but not slow either...I appear to have the worst efficiency on here lol.

Kbecks, i know the track guys like to justify upgraded BBK brakes by going to the track(which i used to do myself in the past), but lets not kid ourselves...its all about cooling and preventing fade and things like brake pads, upgraded brake fluid and air duct kit will make way more of a...

sourcing the OEM performance brakes wasn't that bad on ebay...but it was really expensive..almost like buying brembos...I have a thread on this if you search...the rears were a PITA cause unless you have the harness(which isn't easy to fund), you will throw codes and it won't work.

trust me guys, it was expensive to source the parts and install costs...any smart person wouldn't do this lol...but this isn't about practicality this is about getting what you want...like who "needs" after mkt exhausts, coilovers, or even new wheels ?...nobody!!...while getting performance pkg...

Rick 71, looks like were the only ones!...sure nobody "needs" perf brakes unless they track but they also dont need perf brakes(calipers) if you swap to aggressive pads and change brake fluid for the track too...btw, does anyone "need" the performance software?...no...but we will take it cause...

No the rears are OEM sports too...but in smaller original pic they were painted non-oem cause car was throwing codes cause I didn't have the rear harness...but once I figured it out I put the OEM perf brakes on. But purpose of this thread was to see if anyone else had gone reverse stealth like...

I see threads on people having the stealth perf model 3(software but no hardware) but has anyone else gone anti-stealth like me, meaning upgraded a LR AWD to performance hardware but no software???? -lowering springs, oem performance brakes, upgraded 20 inch wheels

Handled it well???...you could clearly hear him say "OMFG" !...lol.
